I just want an MPP viewer!
Gumbatron2
Pros
Not sure, didn't make it through the installation.
Cons
The installation wizard of this program appears to mainly be interested in installing several other (completely unrelated) applications that from the look of them are spammy/malware type stuff that will just screw with your browser.
Summary
The actual MPP viewer may be ok, I won't find out unless they get rid of the other spammy applications that try to piggy back in with it. These applications are unrelated and should not be installed in the same installer, it is just praying on users who do not read the instructions and/or licence agreements before clicking next.
Beware! Downloads lots of other apps

Pros
Once you get rid of the 3 other applications that try to take over your computer, it does view files fairly well.
Cons
Downloads 3 other apps that nearly take over your computer, and they are difficult to remove completely.
When exported to Excel, all data is in text format, so it is useless.
Summary
Beware of malware!
